”We are currently experiencing a strong interest in our communication solutions, especially from the security industry, and particularly in export markets as the Norwegian,” said Magnus Hedberg, CEO of GroupTalk. ”We are delighted to be able to offer a cost effective solution for push-to-talk as well personal- and panic alarm to Telemark Vaktselskap AS. The security industry is also one of our focus areas, but also an industry with low margins and high cost-consciousness, where many actors are discovering how our products can enable a cheaper and more cost-effective radio communication. This is indeed a target group that can benefit from using PTT solutions, based on standard smartphones.”
Telemark Vaktselskap AS offers a vide range of services to a variety of clients and different events. Besides traditional shelter services to mobile and object protection, festivals and different events represents a large portion of the missions. For Telemark Vaktselskap it was key to find a vendor that had a solution that also could be used on different staffing sizes, without having to make major new investments in communication systems.
”Group Talks push-to-talk solution suits us perfectly as the mission spread over large geographic areas,” said President Thomas S. Moen Telemark Vaktselskap AS. ”Being able to link these with a communications network gives us an opportunity to share information and resources in a way that we have not been able to do with our previous traditional communications. This solution not only provides us with a integrated panic alarm in our service, but it also saves us money compared to if we were to purchase separate personal alarms.”
